+ * of_platform_driver - Legacy of-aware driver for platform devices.
+ *
+ * An of_platform_driver driver is attached to a basic platform_device on
+ * ether the "platform bus" (platform_bus_type), or the ibm ebus
+ * (ibmebus_bus_type).
+ *
+ * of_platform_driver is being phased out when used with the platform_bus_type,
+ * and regular platform_drivers should be used instead. When the transition
+ * is complete, only ibmebus will be using this structure, and the
+ * platform_driver member of this structure will be removed.
